Well worth the money and our guide and driver Orlando was excellent
My second time at Southfork Ranch. Even though yes it’s smaller than you expect, there’s a nice energy about the place. It’s definitely worth checking out. I just wish they hadn’t sold off 200 acres of the land as now you can’t do horseback riding there and having a housing development next door will make the ranch less special.
An excellent experience from start to finish, being collected early Orlando was very informative, excellent tour.
A great experience with our guide for the day, Dan ! His passion , knowledge and friendliness was exceptional . We were picked up on time and Dan took the opportunity to set the scene for the day . Dans knowledge around the events of JFKs assassination was unmatched and although his views regarding the fateful day were apparent he was also willing to listen to alternative views . He didn’t only talk to us about the excursion he also recommended other activities for us to do throughout our stay . The time taken to the Southfork ranch was filled with interesting stories and tales from around Dallas including one about Dans mother being on a couple of episodes of Dallas . I would strongly recommend this trip but I’d also suggest you ask for Dan the man to be your guide !
Wonderful guide so much good information and so much fun.
My wife and I are both handicapped. We were taken from the Ranch House to the Museum by tram with no transportation back.
William was very informative on the history of Dallas and the JFK assassination. Enjoyed stops at the Bronze Cattle Drive and Pioneer Plaza also. Really enjoyed visiting Southfork and getting background to the ranch and the Dallas TV Series.
Orlando our tour guide was very knowledgeable. We toured Dallas in a mini van before going to South Fork. The tour was great and we got time to wander round ourselves which we appreciated.
Dan was super friendly and a great photographer! He was very informative and shared some photos of his Mother, whose story was linked to Dallas. He is both very knowledgeable and passionate about the history of Dallas. This tour is well worth doing, you get to see downtown Dallas and South Fork.
The tour guide was very friendly and provided us with a very personal and informative tour both of Dallas and the Southfork Ranch. We greatly enjoyed it.
